COMMENT

Since the last occurrence of n comes one before the first occurrence of n+1 and the former is at SUM[i=0..n](i^2) = A000330(n), we have a(A000330(n)) = a(n*(n+1)*(2n+1)/6) = n and a(1+A000330(n)) = a(1+(n*(n+1)*(2n+1)/6)) = n+1. The current sequence is, loosely, the inverse function of the square pyramidal sequence. See also: A000330 Square pyramidal numbers: 0^2+1^2+2^2+...+n^2 = n(n+1)(2n+1)/6. A000330 has many alternative formulae, thus yielding many alternative formulae for the current sequence. - Jonathan Vos Post (jvospost3(AT)gmail.com), Mar 18 2006
